Botox originated from Clostridium botulinum , that produces the protein that is the botulinum toxin. The duration of each injection may last up to several months, depending on the recipient of the patient, as it is the delicate process of halting the production of wrinkles with intentional paralysis of facial muscles, with near rapid results from days to weeks, depending on dosage and potency.
